HC Deb 17 May 1957 vol 570 c50W
Sir A. Bossom

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what experiments are being carried out under the auspices of his Department to ascertain if the spraying of sheep could be made as effective as dipping.

Mr. Godber:

A good deal of work has been done on this matter both in this country and overseas and the conditions necessary for the spraying of sheep to be as effective as dipping are known. In these circumstances, my right hon. Friend does not think that any further experiments by his Department are required.
